Watermelon Bash Declared A Success
On April 24, 2008 the Brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha Pi-Lambda Zeta held the Inaugural Watermelon Bash on the St. Louis College of Pharmacy Campus in the Central West End of St. Louis, Missouri.
The Watermelon Bash was held to raise money and non-perishable food for Lambda Chi Alpha’s International Philanthropic Event, the North American Food Drive, held every November. The NAFD was first held in 1993 and to-date has raised more than 27 million pounds of food for needy families across North America. The event is the largest single-day philanthropic event held by a collegiate organization ever. The proceeds of the Bash went to the Arnold Food Pantry.
Through the hard work and effort of everyone
involved, Lambda Chi Alpha raised 6,015 pounds of food!
In addition to the success of the Watermelon Bash, the Brothers of Lambda Chi Alpha were visited by KTVI - Fox 2’s TIM EZELL (Tim’s Travels) . Tim arrived on campus at 7am and a “Mock” Watermelon Bash was held with a Live Feed directly to the morning news show in the St. Louis Area. You can view all THREE Videos HERE. Or, all three videos are embedded below (and on YouTube).
Everyone that attended the Watermelon Bash is requested to fill out a short Survey about the days events.
